[Mick.]

Yep.  Same here.

[Tanks]

Tried to install on 2.0 RC1 but this does not show up in the package manager.

Any advice ?

File unpacks fine on a mac, you could have unpacked it and drop the directory in the Packages dir.

I just uploaded a new package in tgz format, please try again.

Are you sure that permissions are set correctly? Do you have custom boards selected in the profile preferences?

[ellion]

i am not sure, i have looked through all the settings and permissions that i thought might be realted but i am not sure if there is anything that would prevent a board being included in recent topics.

i have noticed that there are settings in my user profile but would this only apply to my profile so that every member would have to manually opt in to any new boar4s that where created?

If nothing is ticked it will show posts/topics from all boards that are accessible for the user. Once the user ticks one or more boards it will only show content from these boards for that individual user.

You can always override the user preference by adding boards=1,2,6 (http://www.yourforum.com/index.php?action=recenttopics;boards=1,2,6)

Or if you are using it in a block somewhere:

Code Select Expand

ssi_recentPostsPref(null,'1,2,6');

can you give me a link to your forum so i can take a look?

this was the reason for the problem i had selected [check all] before i created new categories.  everything is working ok now, i think.

thanks for your help.

Hello!

I would like to use this add-on on version 1.1.8 .
After installing it, I get the following error message when I click on "Show unread posts since last visit." "Show new replies to your posts." or "View the most recent posts on the forum." -->

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare recenttopics() (previously declared in /home2/feet/public_html/Sources/Recent.php:3) in /home2/feet/public_html/Sources/Recent.php on line 1366

Has anybody any idea of what this could be and how to resolve it?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Most likely, something went wrong during installation, and some parts got installed twice (this is not an error of the mod, but something that can happen). You will have to edit the templates manually or overwrite the mentioned files with the ones that came with the SMF installation (don't do this while having other mods installed though!)

To find out which changes are made, you can check the manual installation instructions. Then you will have to check the files to see if the code parts are installed twice and remove one of them.

Excellent mod,

This seems to be the same problem as the one in the previous post. What version of SMF are you using? Try to follow the steps i described above to fix it.

[WVPreacher]

Installed and working great.

The only small glitch I see is that when I have a new post, it does not update after clicking on a thread.  For example, the topic still shows "New" even though it does not have any new posts.

But I will still keep it!!!  Thanks for updating.

I have a mod called Recent Topics, which is already been installed in my forum.

SMF 2.0. RC1-1.

Do you want the whole rows to be dark grey? There are quite a few grey areas you know.

to make all rows dark grey add the following code to the bottom of the theme's style.css:

Code Select Expand


.windowbg, .windowbg2, .windowbg3 {
  background: url(images/catbg.gif);
}

I'm trying to install this mode.
Please tell me how this should be done:
"
This file should not be able to execute standalone. You may have to run the following queries manually.

Query: [Select]

ALTER TABLE {$db_prefix}members ADD `recentpostBoards` TEXT NULL

Query: [Select]

ALTER TABLE {$db_prefix}members ADD `recentLastOnly` TINYINT NULL

Query: [Select]

ALTER TABLE {$db_prefix}members ADD `recentNrofPosts` TINYINT NULL

Query: [Select]

INSERT INTO {$db_prefix}settings VALUES ('recentpostsExtraprefs', 0)
"

And if I decide to uninstall the mode how this querys must be undone?

Thank you.

Hello. I just installed this mod for 1.1.9. Everything went fine, but I have no way to access the options through the admin interface. Here's what I see when I got to Features&Settings (see attached image). It looks like the dividers are there between Layout&Options and Karma, but no heading for this mod.

Seems like it should be an easy fix, but I can't figure it out. Any ideas?
